I saw it 6 weeks ago. Worse, however, there are indications the broker unpacks
the stuff and "repacks" it minimally. I am in the middle of a to-do about a set
that came in packed very differenmtly than the seller insists was his packing.

The set was smashed. This is NOT the first time.

Moral: Pack well and DO NOT SHIP VIA UPS.  They beat the s#$% out of stuff.
